Abstract
This paper proposes a wireless digital endoscope with a ultra-wide-angle view. Two key components are implemented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed endoscope. First, a ultra-wide-angle lens module with the field of view of 144 degree and F-number of 2.2 is designed and manufactured. Second, a wireless module for a high-speed video transfer is implemented using a USB device server and wireless LAN router. The wireless module can directly transfer a streaming video to a computer with the resolution of 1920x1080, frame rate of 30 fps, and data rate of 53.3 Mbps without an internet connection. Since the wireless module supports two USB devices, two spots can be simultaneously observed using the proposed endoscope.
